The time is near.

(no subject)

As interesting and as cool as this trailer looks, I swear I am so sick and tired of filmmakers thinking that there HAS TO BE some little kid in a horror movie that says stuff like, "Don't be scared, Mommy", or "He just wants to come out and play with us", or any other number of random "chilling kid-lines". Even in The Sixth Sense, which was good, but not great, (it was way over-hyped), Haley Joel Osment got on my nerves. I just wanted to punch him in the face.

It's stupid. It's a crutch. And it was never scary. It's just plain annoying.*



*Footnote: This does not apply to all children in horror films. Considering one of my favorite horror movies is The Omen, that is different. Damien wasn't channeling evil, he WAS evil.
The time is near.
